[spiral flicker]

Yea and I feel like when I play fuckin slick I get destroyed to stomach

[silver jewel]

[mint light]

[naive anchor]

it has a higher armor class than my main helmet imao

[spiral flicker]

Its like 50k

[silver jewel]

headset compatibility does make up for it

[silver jewel]

on flea market

[fresh owl]

wait until you see my headset collection

[naive anchor]

[mint light]

u can keep the esmarch and bandage i guess

[spiral flicker]

I was running m61 in labs and it works well imo

Only headset I would use is Xcel and comtacs. And I also like sordins xd

[silver jewel]

comtacs feel just nice

[spiral flicker]

Yea

[mint light]

like washington dc and some other places

[naive anchor]

give me a sec

[silver jewel]

audios smooth, but footstep audio and gunshots are balanced but still stand oht

[fresh owl]

i have my volume ridiculously loud anyway so headsets become all the same

[spiral flicker]

[fresh owl]

i once had my volume so loud my ears were ringing after a gunfight irl

[spiral flicker]

M32 + loud game

[mint light]

comtacs and sordins

best

[shell kindle]

M32 too loud

My ears hurt

[spiral flicker]

Yea

Same

[silver jewel]

nah prapor headset 💀

[shell kindle]

Yeah that one also too loud

[mint light]

gssh

[spiral flicker]

I like GSS more then m32

[shell kindle]

I ran sordins and when I get the gssh I’m like ow

[serene reef]

gssh -> comtac

[spiral flicker]

Nah

[naive anchor]

so like washington?

[serene reef]

occasionally xcel razor etc

[naive anchor]

@mint light

[silver jewel]

comtacs are my fav bc easily accessible and smooth sound

[mint light]

ye

[silver jewel]

sordins are good for rain tho

[mint light]

washington d.c.

[silver jewel]

and the tactical sports

[naive anchor]

ok

[serene reef]

i hate sordins cause if you run you cant hear anything

i s2g

[spiral flicker]

I don't even know why I like excels

[silver jewel]

you cant hear anything in the rain anyways so its find

[mint light]

omg you can pay on it

play

[shell kindle]

That’s why you don’t run

[spiral flicker]

Maybe it feels better in buildings or something

[serene reef]

wait ya all dont run LMAO?!

[naive anchor]

:

[spiral flicker]

[mint light]

no i sit in a corner on labs stairs and dont move

[shell kindle]

Depends but I just w key mostly

[mint light]

what

[shell kindle]

Running overrated

[naive anchor]

👀

[serene reef]

w key literally means run

[naive anchor]

LOL

[serene reef]

tho

so

[mint light]

its playable ping

[naive anchor]

so what now?

[mint light]

i like to w key and then run into a double barrel

[shell kindle]

What

[silver jewel]

yessir die to 12/70 fletchette

[mint light]

we could play together later

if u want

[naive anchor]

ofc

[mint light]

i am american thats why i asked

[silver jewel]

w key means you push every fight like ur braindead

[serene reef]

yup

thats why i dont do that

[shell kindle]

You know how someone is American? They will tell you

[silver jewel]

also i can play on DC servers with not too bad ping

[serene reef]

but i cba to not run everywhere

[mint light]

yes

[naive anchor]

idk if it works today though

[serene reef]

i can too even tho im EUE

[silver jewel]

exactly the game is more fun if you ape everything

[naive anchor]

im on longer on the weekends

[mint light]

ok ur probably insanely good because u seem like u no life the game no offense 💀

[mint light]

how long on weekdays?

[silver jewel]

actually i work, play football, and am a student

[mint light]

chad?

[silver jewel]

i dont really devote too much of my day to tarkov

[naive anchor]

idk probably around 21-22 pm my time on weekend until 1 am though

[silver jewel]

its something i do with my roommates lol

so i dont rlly babyrage or get mad at new players

[blazing brook]

Is there any way to get a gl other than pk barter

Like can I find one in a raid

[silver jewel]

nipe

[blazing brook]

Poop

[silver jewel]

on the new scav boss in the LH expansion yeah

[mint light]

omg we could play @naive anchor

[serene reef]

its not fun if you play too safe

[mint light]

thats when i get on

[upper pivot]

New player… just running customs atm…. Any little gems of knowledge…?

[silver jewel]

but that hasnt happened yet

[silver jewel]

stash runs on youtube

[mint light]

do not die

[naive anchor]

omg

:O

[silver jewel]

learn locations, landmarks. Called different names by the players, helps you with orientation on the map

[serene reef]

if you're new prob avoid crackhouse and fortress unless you have a really good spawn for it

[upper pivot]

Thanks

[mint light]

ninja chicken are you good at valorant

[serene reef]

those are the two hotspots

[naive anchor]

semi i dont play ranked though

[serene reef]

there's a TON of loot near zb11 and usec house

so

[upper pivot]

Thx

[serene reef]

theres really no need to go there

[naive anchor]

mostly top fragging

[serene reef]

also pay attention to chokes

[mint light]

i am basically the best sova player in the world

[serene reef]

there are numerous jumps

[upper pivot]

Haha… that’s the general idea I thought

[shell kindle]

Max play valorant with me sometime

[naive anchor]

lol

[silver jewel]

lemme join in, gotta get out of bed cuz my muscles are dead asf from practice yesterday

[serene reef]

people mostly go left or right

[mint light]

im playing tmrw

[naive anchor]

im not even maining a duelist lol

[silver jewel]

oh i can play today lol

[serene reef]

since if you are on one side of the map, your extracts are on the opposite side

[shell kindle]

Lol no shit

[blazing brook]

I’m radiant xd

[mint light]

can you tmrw 😳

[mint light]

myth

[blazing brook]

Why are ppl good at valorant bad at tarkov?

[shell kindle]

Inertia

[mint light]

valorant eu so easy

[naive anchor]

im good in apex

[fresh owl]

they fundamentally play differently

[shell kindle]

Also tarkov is like 1% gun skills

[eternal narwhal]

im good at tarkov and average at everything else

[naive anchor]

1v3ed a pred squad imao

[mint light]

@naive anchor i will bring you m4s 😳

[silver jewel]

yeah, got practice but should be good after

[shell kindle]

99% game knowledge

[naive anchor]

hehe

[blazing brook]

Wdym?

[shell kindle]

That was a joke

[blazing brook]

Also what even is inertia

[silver jewel]

lvl 500 octane main since S2 right here, S2 i played wraith cuz im a sweat

[blazing brook]

Idfk what it is lol

[naive anchor]

im not even level 300 lol

started season 5

[eternal narwhal]

notice how you dont stop immediately after you stop pressing w?

thats inertia

[naive anchor]

love m4´s hehe

[serene reef]

inertia doesnt exist with high strength LOL

[lusty hill]

anyone got tips on how to get better at interchange PMC?

[silver jewel]

i miss last wipe, where i could monkey swing like fucking tarzan around corners

[mint light]

you probably also love dying

[silver jewel]

yeah elite strength removes it pretty much

[lusty hill]

can't seem to get to top floor without dying or getting there first

[naive anchor]

hmm

[serene reef]

yeah you gotta expect enemy everywhere

[eternal narwhal]

i dont lol even though i did it that shit was stuuuupid

[serene reef]

if you need to go upstairs and you're unsure

[mint light]

my m4 has 28 recoil😳

[serene reef]

use secret stairs

[naive anchor]

i would take a good weapon too though ;D

[lusty hill]

wheres that?

[naive anchor]

x3

[shell kindle]

Go to the idea side

[lusty hill]

i usualy get merc'd on 2nd floor

[shell kindle]

Generally less pmcs there

[mint light]

if u want to pay me for it i will buy u good shit but sometime i might give u free stuff 😳

[shell kindle]

Why do you need to go to the 3rd floor

[silver jewel]

smh, use the 400 recoil ash-12 meta

[lusty hill]

i thought techlight gave good loot

[mint light]

i have an ash 12 i wonder if i should build it

[naive anchor]

in roubles? lol

lololol

[mint light]

is it expensive to build an ash properly

[shell kindle]

Yeah you are gonna see the most action around oli

[mint light]

yeah

[silver jewel]

its fucking scary, and not too expensive

[mint light]

i have ammo concerns

[shell kindle]

The expensive part about the ash is the ammo

[mint light]

@naive anchor a good lvl 4 armor is like 60k

[silver jewel]

fair, decent rounds are 1k+ each

[shell kindle]

I wouldn’t run it without ps12b

[naive anchor]

how much would it cost? lol

[mint light]

is it only good with ps12b

[mint light]

60k for a good armor

[naive anchor]

i mean a good gun

[viscid kraken]

is there a way to reset the bullet holes in the hideout if I'm practicing my aim? I can't afford a new wall

[shell kindle]

I would just run as val or vss if you don’t want to run ps12b tbh

[mint light]

you dont wanna know💀

building guns gets so expensive

[fresh owl]

i have never built an ash 12

i just kill a guy with one and use their build

[mint light]

how much is an ultra meta m4 with all lvl 4 traders?

500k?

[silver jewel]

i have never built an m4, all of the m4 chads are like mice, set a trap and they fall for it

[bold kernel]

no

[naive anchor]

how can i switch between my sights? lol

[silver jewel]

300-400k depending on flea costs

[mint light]

figured

[fresh owl]

m4s in 12.12

5.56 in 12.12

[mint light]

alt left click

[silver jewel]

its hold right click leftctrl pretty sure

[fresh owl]

adar supremacy

[mint light]

[spiral flicker]

[silver jewel]

ohhhhhh ok

[mint light]

[naive anchor]

oki ty

[viscid kraken]

this is my first wipe, was m855 good before this wipe?

[fresh owl]

[silver jewel]

thought he was using a top mounted scope and a lower scope

[naive anchor]

works now lol

[silver jewel]

it was at least usable lol

[naive anchor]

[mint light]

ur gonna go crazy at mechanic lvl 2

[shell kindle]

M4s look cool

[mint light]

[shell kindle]

[shell kindle]

I mean like find in the wild

[mint light]

[shell kindle]

I know woods has drops

[mint light]

the sopmod is so bad tho

i do buy it sometimes

[shell kindle]

I have so many@mods from rogues

I have like 5 half built m4s

I’m bad

[mint light]

what ive been doing is wearing lvl 6 armor and rys-t and just bullying people because im invincible

spam voicelines

[shell kindle]

Slicks?

Lol

Idk I like doing tasks lol

although I hate shoreline cause I collected skiers shit and forgot to turn it in

Because that mechanic is incredibly stupid

[mint light]

hexgrid

[shell kindle]

And I hate myself

I did that with golden swag too

I just hate skier in general tbh

They should pop a warning if you have quest stuff in the quest inventory

[mint light]

ive done like two quests in total

[shell kindle]

Like they do with the generator

[bold kernel]

Not on my airsoft gun

[mint light]

💀

[viral prawn]

i have a p90 variant airsoft gun that can fire 4000 rounds per minute and has an 8000 round ammo capacity

They should make REAL guns like this

[mint light]

[viral prawn]

i'm not joking, the airsoft gun shoots a fucking stupid amount of pellets

[violet crystal]

what

bros firing his mag per 2 minutes

[mint light]

💀

[viral prawn]

They should work on it so they can

[mint light]

dude

[violet crystal]

i meaaan

[viral prawn]

Belt fed backpack to my p90

[mint light]

how big does my mag have to be

[dry juniper]

[blazing brook]

fence op

[mint light]

[violet crystal]

shooting 8000 small metal balls at very fast speeds from an actual gun coukd possibly be lethal

[viral prawn]

HE FOUND IT BOYS, THE ONE ITEM WORTH BUYING FROM FENCE

Congratulations, that's better than i've ever done off of fence

[shell kindle]

Lotta stuff worth buying from fence

Like armor for sew it good

[viral prawn]

[naive anchor]

oki

[viral prawn]

Alright Max, Best tarkov playeramillian

[shell kindle]

Just call max toxic

It’s the same thing

[blazing brook]

what do i do with a non fir gpu that i got, i dont upgrade my hideout so its usless. any barters for it?

[viral prawn]

Put it in your rig and run a factory

[shell kindle]

Sell it

[viral prawn]

when the person invariably adds you to ask you why, ask them if they frauded it

and watch as their brain physically melts

i stuff bitcoins into my pockets and run factory, and then when people ask me why i always ask if they frauded it because it was insured

[daring stag]

they really need better bullet physics. Cant shoot through walls

[shell kindle]

You can shoot through some materials

[mint light]

i be shooting through everything

[agile spoke]

anyone wanna run something? brand newish, and nae

[spiral flicker]

try #pvp-lfg

[pale snow]

when is the barter event going to end?

[shell kindle]

Nobody knows but I suspect it’ll end 4/28

Although aren’t Russian dates like d/m

So 42/8

[spiral flicker]

i am pretty sure that 4/28 will be LH expansion

[spiral flicker]

niceee

[bold kernel]

• m4, korund and bastion gave to my teammate

[small robin]

nice one mate

[violet crystal]

i got a bunch of nice shit

[violet crystal]

because 5 7 is too good

[bold kernel]

had this kit LOL

than wiped them

[bold kernel]

fr u were my carry

[small robin]

this is what i got(separate raids)

[bold kernel]

u killed scavs

as a scav

[small robin]

separate raids as i said

[spiral flicker]

me dying on labs to PPSH

[bold kernel]

oh didnt realise lol

[small robin]

the 7 kill raid was intense tbh, accidentally ran into scav house with my akon only 10 ammo

[bold kernel]

LOL

scary

[small robin]

the 7th kill was the last ammo i had in my pistol, lucky ass headshot

[final perch]

Did something change in 12.12

i cant put my sight on my 9a3

[spiral flicker]

on what?

[final perch]

beretta

[spiral flicker]

imegine modding pistols

i mean

5/7 and shrimp good

[final perch]

pistol quest

[spiral flicker]

but beretta

[final perch]

but i dont wanna drop the dosh on the 5.7

i used to do interchange runs with it, worked just fine

[spiral flicker]

i am not fan of 9mm

these bullets are just bad

[shell kindle]

Cosplaying US marines

[final perch]

LOL

i hated the beretta, m18 is much better minus the flaws

[spiral flicker]

wth is m18 bro

[final perch]

oh im stupid af, i bought the wrong mount lmao

new service handgun, same cal but sig makes it

[rigid light]

SR-1MP, keep or sell?

[shell kindle]

Keep

Wonder why they don’t use a Glock

[final perch]

idk tbh

[shell kindle]

No safety?

[final perch]

i believe the navy does iirc

nah, the safety function on a glock is much better than a sig

[small robin]

goofiest glock i can build with ll1 on all traders?

[shell kindle]

Ah fancy SIG wording for a p320 lol

[final perch]

you cant "accidentally" set a glock off like you can the 18

which makes it nicer imo

[shell kindle]

Yeah that makes sense

[rigid light]

ah shit

i have a face shield for the Rys-t helmet, should i buy it?

the helmet

y'know what nah

[bold kernel]

anyone know if you take off the stock if its sill worth about the same

[quiet rain]

you can't take off the stock without the Pistol grip

[blazing brook]

ofc the airdrop spawns in the middle of the rogues area so i die the second i go for it

ffs

[spiral flicker]

why u going there

xd

[blazing brook]

was a scav

nothing to lose

[spiral flicker]

yea

u must know that its dangerous in middle of water treatment

xd

[blazing brook]

yes but i looked at the turret and there wasnt anyone on it and then when i ran in the rogue obv ran back on that turret and killed me

welp

[spiral flicker]

🤷‍♂️

can someone tell me how lvl 42 can play this trash build

[nova sentinel]

look cool dats all what matters

dats how i mod guns atleast

meta crap dumb

[spiral flicker]

its impossible to play full auto with this

[nova sentinel]

looks like someones pmc has been drinking hot rods instead of milk

weak bones

[blazing brook]

best kit for factory prove me wrong

HOW TF

oh ffs

[nova sentinel]

wussy kit

[blazing brook]

my gun was shoved up against him so i cldnt go for head lol

[shell kindle]

What did you load into it

[blazing brook]

flechette

[shell kindle]

I don’t really like flechette In db

Sometimes you get stuff like that where it’s spread and you need 1 more shot to kill

[blazing brook]

i cant get ap20 etc

[shell kindle]

I mean I guess it’s better than anything else

Craft? You are level 30

[blazing brook]

where can i craft

[shell kindle]

I would just pay a little more and run a standard 4 shot mp153

Workbench 3 I think

Yeah workbench 3

[whole thistle]

not many people will buy that lmao

[whole thistle]

you can

[quiet rain]

no lol

[dire eagle]

You can, but only if using the standard pistol grip that it normally comes with

[quiet rain]

oh ok

[simple cipher]

i just started rn

[quiet rain]

got 2 today with the stocks / grips welded togethrr

[simple cipher]

how do i get started

[quiet rain]

cry a lot, then try to start a game

[whole thistle]

Fuck vss 🤮🤢🤮

[dire eagle]

Yeah thats the better combo allowing you to put on a better stock (:

[whole thistle]

Learn maps do quests

[quiet rain]

the foldable stock or "mine"?

[whole thistle]

Is the one you found the buffer tube one or the wood one

[neon whale]

Anyone got a list of items to keep or sell

[quiet rain]

bouffer prooly

not the vss one tho

[whole thistle]

Yah the buffer tube let's you put better stocks

[dire eagle]

^

[quiet rain]

nice

not a val enjoyer xd

gon' take the dust in my thicc

[whole thistle]

https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/escapefromtarkov_gamepedia/images/1/19/QuestItemRequirements.png/revision/latest?cb=20211230000913

That's items to keep

[bold kernel]

Tarkov wiki has everything you will need

[neon whale]

thx

[simple cipher]

do i change anyhting before loading in for the first time

[whole thistle]

Turn off the noise setting

It makes seeing literally impossible

[simple cipher]

alright wb my inv

[whole thistle]

You probably won't need food, I'd put a medkit and painkillers in the pouch

Food and water is really annoying to get so losing it on the first run can be frustrating lol

[simple cipher]

hm okay

so i remove the food

[whole thistle]

Also you should probably bring an Esmarch so you don't bleed to death

[simple cipher]

and put a medkit, painkiller, esmarch in my pouch

[whole thistle]

Sounds good

Btw just keep in mind m4s have a ton of recoil so don't try to full auto at much of a range

[simple cipher]

alright

thanks alot

[neon whale]

does killing tagilla as a scav lower scav rep?

[open hedge]

i just killed this guy with 556 fmj

[bold kernel]

Yeah, you will lose a lot of rep.

[neon whale]

but he can shoot me, fun

[bold kernel]

do you already have low karma?

[neon whale]

no

0.15 with fence

[bold kernel]

Maybe you accidentally aggro'd him who knows lol

[simple cipher]

this good?

[bold kernel]

have to learn to love death with this kind of bullshit anyways

[simple cipher]

Zapwag

[whole thistle]

Tagilla just shoots he doesn't care

No warning

[bold kernel]

they change him recently? have not played for a while.

[whole thistle]

He's always done it afaik, only if you're standing in his path though

[simple cipher]

??

[whole thistle]

Oh sorry lol

Looks fine

[simple cipher]

alright perfect

any first map recommendations

[whole thistle]

There's not really any easy maps

All of the early quests are on customs so most people learn that first

[simple cipher]

ill go custom

tysm zapwag

[whole thistle]

Make sure to pay attention to how you die and learn from it

[neon whale]

factory is what i would suggest. close range and usually alot of fighting. gets you use to it atleast

[whole thistle]

Oh yeah also you need a map to navigate anywhere
https://mapgenie.io/tarkov is alright @simple cipher

[simple cipher]

oh thanks

[bold kernel]

Factory would be easiest, due to quickly being able to extract, and very few to learn.

[simple cipher]

do i insure anything

[whole thistle]

This map is my personal favorite for customs

[simple cipher]

hm

maybe

[whole thistle]

You could do the gun

Doubt anyone will take a default m4

[simple cipher]

wait i dont get it, whats my main objective when i enter the map

[shell kindle]

I die to scavs and the bosses enough to make it worth insuring

[simple cipher]

is it just getting the loot?

[bold kernel]

go to traders, accept tasks.

[whole thistle]

Loot or quest then escape

[shell kindle]

Doing quests early on

[bold kernel]

survival is the primary goal

[simple cipher]

done.

[simple cipher]

how do i escape when im done

[whole thistle]

You have to go to one of your available extraction points

[simple cipher]

oh alright

thanks

[bold kernel]

you have to find the extraction points on the map

[whole thistle]

You can check them by double tapping O

[simple cipher]

ill go into the customs map rn

[terse oasis]

Yeah, watch a video showing the extracts

[whole thistle]

Or run offline once or twice to get the vibe of the map

[simple cipher]

im gonna use this wipe since its really late in as practice

[bold kernel]

choose one map, play it non stop til you get comfortable and learn the escape routes and shit, then move onto more.

[simple cipher]

ill do that with customs first

[bold kernel]

Customs is good for starting off on

every map is going to kill you relentlessly anyways

[whole thistle]

I had to do the same lol, my first wipe was like 3 weeks before the next one started

[bold kernel]

on customs i would learn where the sniper scavs are too, they will get ya sometimes lol.

[simple cipher]

alright

wish me luck

im about to go in

is this correct?

do i press insure

[bold kernel]

i insure everything all the time personally

[noble zealot]

new to game is customs the best map to learn?

[bold kernel]

but you are going to lose everything so be prepared for that lmfao

[bold kernel]

factory / customs id say.

[simple cipher]

should I do that?

[zinc marlin]

yeah, but i wouldnt expect much killing tho, its okay to die a lot. You learn only from your death in this game

[bold kernel]

it may or may not come back, i just tend to have a habit of insuring everything

[simple cipher]

ill just insure all of my items rn

[noble zealot]

okay thanks. having trouble learning extracts.. Should i even use pmc this new in game?

[bold kernel]

you can go in offline mode to explore the map first so you have a better chance of getting to an extract alive lol

[simple cipher]

are there AI in offline?

[zinc marlin]

absolutely, yes. But scavving lets you learn the map layout without worriing of losing gear

[bold kernel]

death is how you learn, its a brutal learning curve, but one we all walk, use the force, i mean pmc.

[terse oasis]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=137DGpXR5L8

First watch a video like this showing the extracts

[whole thistle]

Only if you enable pve

[terse oasis]

Go offline and follow the guide

[bold kernel]

you can toggle them and bosses if you choose

[simple cipher]

id rather not for my first time

[karmic axle]

gawdamn my scav was lootin

[simple cipher]

WAIT

if i die in offline raid does that remove my items

[fervent ermine]

No

[simple cipher]

okay good

[noble zealot]

okay will try. thanks guys. will probably ask for help and questions alot

[bold kernel]

you used to be able to take loot out of offline raids, but not anymore lol.

[noble zealot]

about as new as you can be at this

[viscid kraken]

what are nice close quarter scopes for nvgs?

[whole thistle]

Anything you do offline is undone when you exit the offline raid

[simple cipher]

alright good

thanks

[stone surge]

Deltapoint or Burris fastweaver imo

I dont like the triangle of the deltapoint, but with nvg's I make the exception.

[viscid kraken]

yeah deltapoint is so clean it's my favorite, but I went for spectre because just a deltapoint on rfb is a bit too little, I tried eotech hybrid and it's good but definitely not with nvg's

[quartz sail]

its not letting me buy tarkov can someone help me pls?

[stone surge]

The problem with variable scopes, like the spectre,vudu,razor,valday is that they're very dark at night with NVG's

in daytime I run vudu 99% of the raids.

if they weren't buggy dark with nvg's, i would run vudu at night too

[viscid kraken]

gonna test in offline and see, I just want to hide in darnkess while I quest in customs

[kind kelp]

can you guys look at my scav box and tell me what i really dont need?

im full

[stone surge]

I still use the variable scopes to kill cultist, but with a deltapoint on top in case i run into players that can be hard to spot with scopes

[kind kelp]

im also new

[stone surge]

Do you have flea unlocked?

[kind kelp]

no

im level 12 lol

what should i sell to therapist?

[stone surge]

oh god, please use the sort function 😛

[kind kelp]

this better for you? lmaoo

[viscid kraken]

I can sleep at night now

[stone surge]

wd40,gauge,thermometer (both top right), broken lcd, fuel conditioner, clin, dcleaner, vase, GP coin, theapot

you can atleast sell to therapist, also the surv lighters and chainlet

the dogtags, unless you have a specific reason to keep them

[kind kelp]

okay! thank you!

[viscid kraken]

any use for the batteries? i never collect them

[stone surge]

not really

[whole thistle]

queztzzttztz

[shell kindle]

I’d keep the dogtags tbh

You’ll need them for quite a few quests

[stone surge]

yea I would keep 7 usec dogtags for friend from the west part 1. other than that I have never used dogtags

[shell kindle]

Punisher part 5?

[bold kernel]

anyone wanna help with some custom runs im in lfg

[whole thistle]

theres a ton of dog tag quests

[shell kindle]

Lol okay

[stone surge]

BP is everywhere anyways and punisher quest sucks :4

[shell kindle]

Okay flex the gamma harder it’s okay

[stone surge]

I wish I was mentally as strong as some other tarkov players.

[shell kindle]

Episilon is the goal for punisher imo not bp or bt

Or the prize I should say

[unique horizon]

what are some good graphic settings to use?

[stone surge]

Gotta say I forgot about epsilon

but good point ^^

[pseudo abyss]

bruh i litearlly found a mutant, 2 tetrizes, vpx and a ton of other purple shit and i got a mdr from an airdrop

[shell kindle]

Good

[pseudo abyss]

and tehn a gay ass fucking player scav kills me

[shell kindle]

Not so good and don’t be rude

[stone surge]

Part of Tarkov

[pseudo abyss]

i litearlly die more to player scavs than people

[stone surge]

Big gains, lose big gains

[pseudo abyss]

theres no incentive to not kill other scavs

[viscid kraken]

It was obvious you were a walking loot pinata with this kind of gear, you should've dipped or kos anyone close

[pseudo abyss]

i found the mutant in the bunker

adn he just pops up behind me a second later

[kind kelp]

give it to me

[stone surge]

I think most players would do the same

if they see an easy target with a mutant on his back

Don't feel safe, just because you're a scav 😉

[pseudo abyss]

this dude 1 shot through a flora with 7mm

[stone surge]

flora is a color pattern

doesn't really describe what armor you had

just the color

[pseudo abyss]

tier 5

[stone surge]

which one?

[shell kindle]

There’s no t5 flora

[pseudo abyss]

the darker one

[stone surge]

afaik there isnt a tier 5 with flora pattern

[whole thistle]

https://escapefromtarkov.fandom.com/wiki/6B13_assault_armor

?

[shell kindle]

It’s t4

[stone surge]

yea thats tier 4 and ceramic, breaks very quick

[pseudo abyss]

well either way he still managed to 1 shot through it

with a 7mm

and i died

[rigid light]

is lvl 5 helmet good enough for the current pvp situation

[pseudo abyss]

end of story

[shell kindle]

He shot your head

[pseudo abyss]

no

[shell kindle]

I mean probably?

[stone surge]

depends what helmet. If you mean altyn/rys-T yes.

but it requires a certain playstyle to be effective.

[shell kindle]

I wouldn’t do it though

[kind kelp]

you were a scav and then got killled by a scav?

[shell kindle]

You lose a lotta sound

[pseudo abyss]

yes?

[rigid light]

Rys-T exactly, i even have a face mask for it

[kind kelp]

i hate when that happens

[stone surge]

it's good, just know you sacrifice hearing.

[mint light]

rys-t is the best helmet in the game rn

but u lose hearing

[stone surge]

you will most likely tank a bullet to the head with even meta ammo

[kind kelp]

i just made it out with a g28 and a gucci vector

im level 12

lmfao

[rigid light]

knowing me i'll just be confused, and then get shot in the head again

[kind kelp]

that makes me a rat no?

[stone surge]

m62 for example only has like 40% chance to penetrate a fresh altyn/rys-T on first shot

[silver jewel]

show a ss, wanna see

[whole thistle]

yes lmao

[kind kelp]

dont tell me it was yours

lmao

[whole thistle]

[shell kindle]

oats are nice

[kind kelp]

apparently

[rigid light]

is it good, i heard it sucks since ceramic breaks fast

[silver jewel]

its ok

[mint light]

extract campers try to be loved challenge

[mint light]

great for one raid

[silver jewel]

good durability, worth using

[mint light]

and one raid only

[silver jewel]

1 raid usage tho

[rigid light]

lmao

[silver jewel]

unless u dont get shot

[rigid light]

good thing i have two

[silver jewel]

its ceramic, durability goes faster than a nic fiends vape

[mint light]

i got shot like 3 times by m855 and it broke 💀

[rigid light]

just armour swap them like in apex

[viscid kraken]

I heard it's best armor in game, but what does a lv15 know

[mint light]

its not even level 6

[rigid light]

yeah, what do you know?

[mint light]

YEAH

WHAT DO YOU KNOW

[silver jewel]

[viscid kraken]

lemme guess, hexgrid and slick are better right?

[shell kindle]

no stomach

[mint light]

yeah

[bold kernel]

if you dont find dying fun, this game will make you hate life.

[kind kelp]

yeah but we gotta eat the oats so we die better

[viscid kraken]

nice stomach

[shell kindle]

ghzel pretty good if you arent running like an armored rig

just dont insure

[mint light]

no stomach is a good thing in a lot of cases

ur lighter and u dont lose durability when hit in stomach

[rigid light]

well, hexgrid is better if you don't account for it being cursed

[shell kindle]

not currenlty with the damage spread

[silver jewel]

factory loadout for the 4th TIME IN AFUCKING ROWWWWWW

i NEED TO LOSE THIS HEXGRID

[shell kindle]

also coughing your lungs out is a pain in hte ass

[silver jewel]

someone queue with me

[viscid kraken]

please don't cover the 1.5x multiplier area, that's such good advice

[kind kelp]

oh so youre a hatchling

[rigid light]

pro tip: get shot in unarmoured parts of your body to protect your armour

[silver jewel]

if ur talking to me, im running this to get rid of my gear
